Campaigns

The market window as of 0.2.11

A campaign refers to the set of companies (called competitors) and their products.

You will be notified about their every release through industry news, unless you disable News about competitors' CPUs in the options menu. You can view your competitors' market share in the market window, which is accessible at all times. It's also the only window that allows controlling the time speed when it's open.

As of 0.2.12, there are two campaigns in the game. You can pick which one you want to play or completely disable competitors before beginning the game when naming your company in the company creation screen. Campaign choice doesn't affect your high score, but lets you compete in different markets.
